Moving autos outside in day and inside at night

Will moving autos outside during day for the sun rays and back inside under LED at night cause stress on girls? Had a member mention to me so figured I would get some input. Been having slow flowering on my oldest girl. But I know time and patients equal reward.

It won’t hurt them. It may bring outside bugs to other plants and end up a headache. Those plants are in desperate need of better light. How many hours of Direct sunlight does it get?
 
I do it with my fall/winter/early spring grows but would not attempt it this time of year with a heat index consistently over 100F
at my lat/long. I don't go outside between 1100-1730hrs. because it stresses the hell out of me.

Direct/ 3 hrs and 5 hours shaded. Then back to 1000w led FS and 1200w FS . I have 1 over head and 1 from the side. I figure for a 4x4 grow space 3 plants it would be enough.

What types of light do y’all use? Or what’s some good lights. These 2 lights cost me 275.00 for both

20/4 light guess I should go 24 hrs light then?
I’ve never ran a auto 24/0 so I don’t know. It may stress it now since it’s already in flower and you could end up getting foxtails or nanners. Maybe someone will chime in and let us know if it’s ok to run 24/0 now. If you’re planning on doing more grows after this, you’ll need to invest in better lighting. 120.00 dollars being on the low end could produce results 3x better than what you have now. Those lights you have now are basically just keeping those things alive. The sun is doing all the work.
Before buying another light if you are
Come here and ask the forum for recommendations. GL

If you wanted to look at better lighting, I'd recommend the sf-1000. Its better than those blurpys by x3. I'd still run those other lights as well tho. If you have the money, go for the sf-2000 or even 4000. Hlg offers some nice lighting at a pretty penny. Look at quantum boards on alibaba. You can always get suggestions from the good folks on here before you click that buy button.
 
What would u recommend for a 3ftx3ft space. 2 plants? If our government wasn’t such asses about tax right off I could grow like a fucking tomato patch in back yard! I pay 135 for 1/2 oz around here and half time it sucks balls! Like puffing fowl air. So growing my own if it sucks I can kick myself in ball sake . Lol are BESTVA LIGHTS WORTH?

I just looked at the bestva models and they use osram diodes and no name drivers.(overpriced garbage) Most companies use terms like 1000w, 2000w.. etc. You want to look at actual power consumption. Alot of times 1000 is used for 100w lights and so on. Samsung diodes and mean well drivers right now is what people are using.
 
Good for light bad for bugs.

I don’t take any outdoor plant near my tent.
Yeah I want to third this opinion, if you do this you WILL bring bugs inside inadvertently. It just happens.

This is probably fine for the plants going in and out, there are lots of natural predators out there for the little shits that eat our plants. You bring the aphids in, they have a nice relaxing spa night, then they are thrown out like a buffet to the mantids and ladybugs in the morning who handle it for you.

The problem is when you bring those little shits inside, but not the predators, and any plants you have indoors are basically fucked with no protection against the oncoming horde.

So, be cognizant, and if you decide to do this and you do have indoor plants, make sure that you isolate them hard.

About another week and . Almost went 3 months exactly. Had issues at first with Led grow lights. I never new after so long they get weak. A year long I guess. Used during first 6 plants. Did good. Last 3 plants , not so good. Had to buy a Mars TS1000. In 3 days I seen a big change in bud size. Or it was luck of the draw... plus I put them out during day in about 12hrs direct sun light.
